Just making the cut off...
Please find my first entry for this awesome competition, silver birches.
These came into my possession from Shibui and I potted them into groups in 2019.
There was also a couple of additional self sown seedlings that I potted up separately.
Intent is to combine all of them together in spring.
Inspiration
The forests around Hogwarts - my kids are massive Harry Potter fans.
The forest that surrounded the Magic Faraway Tree by Enid Blyton.
And, the stand that lined the driveway where I grew up.
And a couple additional visual inspirations.
Regards,
Sisto

Hey Sisto,
Great that you made the cut-off and what inspirations you have listed! If you get to anything that evokes the sets around Hogwarts in the short period available - that would be amazing. Any Shibui is a wonderful source of young trees too.
Cheers,
Mark

Tending bonsai teaches me patience.
